LEAD STORY: ZOMBIE WORMS!!!!!!

The Necromantic Blight that plagues Grimloch knows no bounds!   The dirt and worms are even being infected!

So-called zombie worms — and yes, they actually exist — like to munch on bones for dinner. The creatures also use the bones for shelter. Spread throughout Grimloch, zombie worms are quite adept at making the bones of people and other large animals look like Swiss cheese.  
But these worms don't have any mouthparts with which to gnaw the holes. So how do they do it? A study published on May 1 in Westwood by Dr. Venture states that the "bone-drilling" worms, are actually "bone-dissolving" worms: The worms’ skin produces acid in large quantities to break down bones.

They also have reported to have excellent echolocation and follow the above ground foot traffic. They wait for an unlucky adventurer to meet some horrible fate then they go and infect the corpse. They also have been known to infect a careless adventurer looking to camp on the ground under the stars.
Grimloch resident Stryker was quoted saying “There is a reason we sleep in tree forts it is simply too dangerous to sleep on the ground with all of these undead creatures lurking about.

 Obituary.
This week in Grimloch we are mourning the death of Captain Fatty McGargle.

Cpt. McGargle first came into Syruss’s life as a little wooden puppet he got at Uncle Cecil’s four years ago this year.

They grew as more than just puppet and puppeteer and became life partners.
Traveling everywhere getting into all kinds of shenanigans these two were inseparable.
 
Until the tragic day when Syruss came home from Green and Gold not to his loving Puppets wooden arms but only to find Rohde playing fetch with Grebinar. It was not a mere stick they were playing fetch with it was in fact Cpt. McGargle.

“He had so much love in his stick heart, and he was always smiling with that painted face of his” **sobbing** “I will never love another puppet again!” Syruss cried.

When asked why he did it Rohde said this “ I hated that fu*$ing puppet.

Well that's it for this issue I am Theddy Quill along side Syruss reporting the facts, the whole facts, and nothing but the facts. Stay safe see you next week
